I've tested it now; I'd neglected to handle the outgoing http headers
before, that's been fixed.  You can review the changes at 

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/pypi/pypi/webui.py.diff?r1=1.54&r2=1.52

Any comments on the code or hints on when it might go live?

For the record, this was because my web server was setting
HTTP_AUTHENTICATION and not HTTP_CGI_AUTHENTICATION.  Changing the
script to check for the other variable worked well enough, but still had
some odd problems.  ('login' worked.  posting to submit_pkg_info
worked.  But when I posted to submit_form, it acted like it wasn't
authenticating again.  I love CGI.)

Thanks,
